Short summary

Tells the story of a young man's struggle to keep his world from changing. Placed in the rural setting of the mid 1950s, it revolves around William Jamison and his colorful old Grampa Jack. Since Will was born, they have shared the same bed and often the same dreams. William is a boy of great imagination who stumbles between fantasy and reality and who, with the gentle guidance of Grampa Jack, discovers they can be one and the same. The family farm, on a rolling piece of spacious countryside, is William's favorite spot on the face of the earth. He is devastated to learn of the family's decision to move to the city, far away from his friends and the love of his life, his cousin Kate. He revolts at the threat of being uprooted and desperately fights to hold on to the only life he has known . - childhood.

i saw this movie when it first came out when i was 10 years old. the only word i can use to describe it is magical. its depictions of manitoba winters and manitoba family life are so accurate and touching. a truly wonderful movie about a boy growing up.

I just watched this movie, with my boyfriend who was planning on using it for a film study in his English 30-1 class. I cried the whole way through... and he was looking at me as though I was crazy. I mean, I loved it, but it was just too sad. Being a country kid myself, I know what it's like to have to move into "town" and it's tough. But the poor Will, he loses his girlfriend (who is his cousin...), his farm, and his grandpa -- All in one winter. It just made me SO sad. Based on the old legend that when it's your time to move on, a stark white horse comes to take you to the next world, this movie can only be summed up as wonderful, heart-warming, and just plain old sad. It makes you laugh at all the right times, with lines like "You had that coming since the day you learned to talk." and the dream about the gophers... It also knows how to tug on your heartstrings...

WONDERFUL FILM.
